Sewing Box – Item I

The Mr and I went shopping the other week, which isn’t unusually for us since we’re both crafty and on his days off we like to stock up on supplies. This shopping trip was no different. We headed out to Michaels and stocked up on a lot of the items we usually run out of or we use regularly. It was also a great day for SALES! They were all over the store and we spent just a tad too much because we kept picking things up and going ‘wow, it’s 50% off! lets get it!’.

Carrot Cake Cupcakes w. Cream Cheese Frosting

In April I posted a recipe I had found in my Amish cookbook for a Carrot Cake  that for me turned out well, if a tiny bit dry. With the Mr birthday coming up soon I asked him what he wanted for his cake. He said it was either a carrot cake or a spice cake. Since I’ve never made a spiced cake before (we don’t have them in Aus) I decided to find another carrot cake recipe.
